4A-2R, a droid of the RA-7 protocol droid type, served within Hondo Ohnaka's pirate gang during the era of the Clone Wars. Due to the presence of surveillance technology integrated into its head, 4A-2R held significant importance in Ohnaka's activities.
The initial appearance of 4A-2R occurred in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars episode titled "Dooku Captured." Subsequent identification of the character took place in Star Wars: Build Your Own R2-D2 11, while an error in Star Wars: Card Trader led to its misidentification as 4A-R2.
